So, we have this new mega-million pound stadium that charges mega bucks for burgers and coke, a lovely big arch to symbolies the old twin towers, and a pitch that cuts up if anyone walks on it in slippers let alone footie boots. Watching Saturdays semi, the ball was leaping and bumping over the ruts and divits like it was on a ploughed field! Didn't get to watch yesterdays game but I'd imagine it was even worse having been carved up once 24 hours earlier.
So how come we can have this centrepiece stadium with a pitch that won't hold together for a 90 minute football match? Surely the grass gets covered when they hold concerts and what have you in there, or does covering the pitch affect it in some way?
And a begrudging well done to Everton and Chelsea DT_Xtremez_14: Lets hope the final makes a decent match if they can iron the wrinkles out of the playing surface.
